Catsfield questions
Can you work in Catsfield outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Is Catsfield within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Catsfield is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.
Which parts of an air handling unit do you clean?
Everything inside the unit that air passes over, from intake to discharge, including coils, fan and drain trays. The photo report shows each section before and after.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?
Yes. The fan must be stopped and the unit isolated, so we plan it for a time that suits the building.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in Catsfield?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Catsfield
If the units serving a building in Catsfield have only had filter changes for years, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. If you are dealing with odours coming through the supply air and dust built up on fan impellers, we can put it right.
For a building in or near Catsfield, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Why act early in Catsfield
Standing water in a drain tray does not clear itself. Leave it and you risk overflows, leaks into the space below and odours carried round the building. Dealing with it early keeps the clean straightforward. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll talk you through it.

What affects the quote in Catsfield
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- A few general shots of the system
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Catsfield
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. Somewhere like Catsfield, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

How the job changes from site to site
Fans and fan sections
The fan moves all of the unit’s air, so dirt on it gets spread around. We clean the impeller, housing and surrounding section.
Heating and cooling coils
Because cooling coils run wet, the dirt on them tends to cling. The coil and its drain tray are cleaned as one job.
What else we do in Catsfield
When to call us in Catsfield
Filters that are not changed or cleaned on time clog up, which cuts the airflow and can let air slip round the filter. After that, the coils and fan collect what the filter should have caught.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
- Odours coming through the supply air
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
For schools like Catsfield Church of England Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Proof of insurance
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- If they look at the system before pricing
